n February 8, 1996, Greg Miller, president of Tenadar Software, called a staff meeting to review the company's latest business plan. Unlike many harried executives, Greg doesn't object to these huddles. "When we have meetings, we have tons of food and a lot of fun," he declared, with all the enthusiasm of a turned-on 11-year-old.

Greg launched Tenadar last year after he and a friend designed a computer game, Prince of India, and distributed it as shareware -- that will be $3.50, please -- on America Online. "Tenadar started as a nonprofit organization, but eventually we thought we could earn money for school -- and a little for us, too," he says. Now Tenadar has a home page, a motto ("Great Software for Kids, by Kids"), a modest cash flow, and a scattered following all over the world.
